Quotes 

• Greg Collinson : A city. A city in the middle of the Atlantic ocean?

  Atmir : You will not find it on any map. But you know its name.

  Charles Aitken : Atlantis!

• Atmir : That is Troi, the third city. We can rest there.

  Charles Aitken : The third city?

  Greg Collinson : So what happened to one and two?

  Atmir : They are lost beneath the waters of the outer limits....forever.

  Captain Daniels : What, just to rot?

  Atmir : All things decay. We control many things, but even we cannot make time stand still.

• [Greg and the others are put into a dungeon] 

  Greg Collinson : Some welcome, Atmir!

  Atmir : Do not waste your energy on anger. Soon you will come to think of Atlantis as your only home.

• Greg Collinson : Are you sure you've got the right outfit on? We're not goin' to a cricket match, old boy.

  Charles Aitken : It's the gear that's been recommended by the Royal Society. That's a rather knowledgeable group. Not that you've ever heard of it.

  Greg Collinson : Well, I can't be a genius about everything, Charles.

• [discussing the diving bell] 

  Captain Daniels : Man crammed into that sardine can? Under the sea? How you gonna expect to breathe?

  Greg Collinson : Simple. Pass the coffee. Think of this coffee cup turned upside-down. You plunge the cup into the water, and there's air trapped inside, right?

  Captain Daniels : Yeah, but that bottom's wide open. I mean, that's crazy! Crazy!

  Greg Collinson : Crazy, but it works. Believe me. Would I go down if it didn't? Skipper, I'm tellin' ya, this baby's got an emergency backup system throughout. And besides, I'm no hero.

• [last lines] 

  Greg Collinson : That's terrific, Charlie.

  Charles Aitken : I know it sounds trivial, but I really do HATE being called Charlie!

  Greg Collinson : [surprised]  What?

• Greg Collinson : When are you geniuses going to learn? They were going to rub you out, Charlie.

• Briggs : There's no escape.

  Greg Collinson : For heaven's sake, man, you've got to at least try. What's the matter with everyone?

  Delphine : Father.

  [Briggs reveals his gills] 

• Greg Collinson : These guardians aren't freaks, they're humans like us; but, the face - you can't see their eyes.

• Charles Aitken : They're supposed to be extinct!

  Greg Collinson : So will we, if we don't get outta here.

• Captain Daniels : That looks like a great way to get killed.

  Greg Collinson : We can always stay here and turn into a goldfish.

• Greg Collinson : I think maybe we went a little below our depth.
